About these values

The record is raw avocado of all commercial kinds, and the weights are for the flesh without skin or pit. The USDA record is "Avocados, raw, all commercial varieties" (SR Legacy, FDC ID 171705). It gives 2 g of protein and 160 kcal per 100 g.

Protein in a portion is its weight times the protein per 100 g, divided by 100. For 1 avocado: 201 × 2 ÷ 100 = 4.0 g. Values on this page are rounded to 0.1 g.

A packaged food's own label can differ from the USDA average. When you have the label, its numbers are the ones for that product.
